Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to a surgical method, and more particularly, to a surgical method of osteotomy device with an extracorporeal alignment component.
- the human knee is a relatively complex mechanical joint. It is the largest joint in the human body, comprised of the two longest bones in the body, the femur and the tibia. The ends of the bones are covered with articular cartilage. The role of articular cartilage minimizes stress on subchondral bone, and reduces the friction on the joint surface.
- knee osteoarthritis most common treatment of knee osteoarthritis is to implant the artificial joint to replace the knee joint surface, but large amount of soft tissue and hard tissue should be removed from the femur, the tibia and the patella to provide the fixation of metal and polyethylene implants. Due to the wear of the polyethylene component, the longevity of the artificial joint replacement is often complicated by postoperative infection, osteolysis and bone resorption, which results in the possibility of a revision surgery. Furthermore, in early-stage knee osteoarthritis, only the medial articular surface is affected. It is not necessary to replace all articular surface by artificial knee components. High tibial osteotomy is an alternative option for patients with medial knee osteoarthritis.
- High tibial osteotomy is performed by a bony cutting plane in the proximal tibia of the knee on the medial side and making an opening wedge by spreading the bony cutting site. Finally, the construct is supported by bone plate fixation. Thus the mechanical axis of the low limb can be corrected. In this procedure, the cartilage and bone stock around the knee joint are preserved. For the patients with medial knee osteoarthritis, it is a good option for surgical treatment.
- the prior art of the present invention is TWM536526U. But, there is still room for improvement. For examples, it cannot take a non-invasive assessment of the correction angle when the surgery is performed, it cannot predict whether the placement (orientation/position) of the osteotomy device is correct, it cannot directly fix the placement of the osteotomy device, it may result in over-cutting when starting to cut.
- the inventor of the present invention has further expanded its function and improved many of the techniques present in the prior art. Therefore, the inventor developed the surgical method of osteotomy device with an extracorporeal alignment component, the expansion of the function and improvement of the technology will be described in detail in the specification.

- the step of cutting along the guide slot comprises: cutting along a lateral guide fin.
- the step of cutting along a lateral guide fin comprises: inserting into at least one osteotome.
- the first body component has an upper guide fin, a lateral guide fin and a first correcting through-hole.
- the lateral guide fin is disposed at the end of the upper guide fin for forming a cutting track.
- the first correcting through-hole is connected to the first body component by a first bar.
- the second body component has a lower guide fin, an extended barrier plate and a second correcting through-hole.
- the lower guide fin disposed below the upper guide fin.
- the extended barrier plate is disposed at the end of the lower guide fin to prevent over-cutting by the saw blade.
- the second correcting through-hole is connected to the second body component by a second bar.
- a guide slot is formed between the upper guide fin and the lower guide fin for guiding a saw blade to perform a bone cutting.
- the guide slot has a connecting member for connecting the upper guide fin and the lower guide fin.
- the step of opening the osteotomy comprises: inserting an alignment bar in the longitudinal axis of the first correcting through-hole and the longitudinal axis of the second correcting through-hole. Then, the step of inserting the alignment bar comprises: fixing the height of the osteotomy by a spreader.
- the osteotomy device with an extracorporeal alignment component has a correction angle between the longitudinal axes of the first correcting through-hole and the second correcting through-hole.
- the aiming hole confirms the direction of cutting by passing through at least one aiming bone pin.
- the surfaces of the first body component and the second body component have a plurality of fixation holes, the osteotomy device with an extracorporeal alignment component is fixed on the surface of the bone by inserting at least one bone pin in the plurality of fixation holes.
- the osteotomy device with an extracorporeal alignment component is manufactured by three-dimensional printing (3D printing) according to the patient's bony CT data and the evaluation of the ideal cutting position and angle.
- the outer surface of the device can fit to the patient's bony anatomy, such as: femur, fibula, humerus, ulna, radius, clavicle, scapula and so on.
- the surgeon can perform the first bone cutting via the guide slot.
